It also gives me the wile's when backing my van onto our block, that someone will come around the corner at speed whi...

A man comes home after a terrible round of golf, his worst ever.He plops down on the couch in front of the television, and tells his wife, "Get me a beer before it starts."** *The wife sighs and gets him a beer. Fifteen minutes later, he says, "Get me another beer before it starts." She looks cross, but fet...

After a couple of very wet stays at caravan parks and getting stuck on soft surfaces we have decided to trade in the diesel Territory (2wd) and get a 4x4. I have narrowed my choice down to either a Pajero or an Isuzu MUX. Being a bit of a skinflint can anyone let me know what sort of economy I would expect to g...

Just purchased a 2000w pure sine wave inverter . Do I need a fuse between it and the battery bank and what size fuse if any would you recommend. Would have read the instructions but it didn't come with any , (second hand but never used). Thanks Mick

Gday. My uncle has just bought a second hand Jayco Expander And he's just found out the hot water doesn't work on mains water. If he needs hot water it will only work on the 12v pump, so drains his tank when he uses it. He got in touch with the previous owner and they said it's been like that since new??? Befor...

I was thinking about upgrading to a 2nd hand 3.2 lt BT50. I've heard you can't wire an anderson plug direct to the battery, when the van is connected, the computer senses battery problems & disables the engine. Is this correct? if so how do you get around it. Cheers Pete

Hi All, sad day with our Motorhome under water at a storage facility in Sydney's Western suburbs. Very sad that there are many others in the same boat! Banks on the creek two kms away burst overnight. The van next to mine is just over a month old. Let's see how good CIL is with their claim process......on...

Hi All Passed through Clairview the other day, much to the navigators and my surprise all the access points to free camping have been blocked off by concrete railway slippers. The little op shop/teahouse has had its turnover slashed since the removal of the free camp sites. This little enterprise di...

Hello everyone. My husband and I, still in Melbourne, are planning to buy a motorhome early next year, around the 24 to 26 ft length. (Still trying to work out the combinations on the grandkids' money boxes!) I have read plenty of views discussing the pros and cons on caravan versus motorhome. As w...

I am considering fitting a water tank underneath my vehicle (troopcarrier). Anyone done a similar thing - would be interested in hearing how you got on - who you used and approximate costs. Thank you in advance. Peter

Gday... Cheers - John
